Sony ECM-V1 Overview

The black Sony ECM-V1BMP is an omnidirectional lavalier microphone with a locking 3.5mm connector wired specifically for use with selected Sony bodypack transmitters, including the UWP series.

The microphone features an omnidirectional polar pattern that picks up sound in a 360° radius around the mic capsule, helping to deliver consistent levels, even if the talent turns away from the capsule. The electret condenser capsule is optimized to run on 5 VDC, but will function with a 1.1 to 10 VDC power source. 

The ECM-V1BMP offers a wide 40 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response and features 2.3mm diameter cable with a 3.9' length. A lapel clip to attach the mic to clothing and a windscreen to reduce wind and breath noise are both included.

Sony ECM-V1 Reviews

Replacement for our Sony ZTX-BO2RC

By Chuck
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2022-04-25

This replacement works perfectly, and as a bonus the newer technology sounds better and the diameter of the microphone is about half the size of the original. The smaller size allows more options as regards attaching to the speaker's clothing. B&H really came through quickly for us, since this kind of gear always quits at the worst possible time. We bought 2, so now we have a back-up.

Great mic with outstanding frequency response

I've been using one of these for the past 3 years for everything from interviews to vocals for a performer with poor traditional mic discipline. Outstanding mic for working in environments with high ambient sound levels.

Excellent quality mic!

These came with the Sony wireless lav set I bought quite a few years ago, and I decided to replace the mics with fresh ones when I noted that the wire was beginning to break where it goes into the jack. I briefly considered going with a less expensive alternative, but only briefly, as I realized the sound quality of these Sonys, along with the locking jack, make the cost well worth it. I need to do no audio sweetening in post - just paste the clip and go! You do need to be gentle when handling these to prevent the wires from being damaged (i'd love it Sony would somehow reinforce where the wire enters the jack), but i suspect that's the case with any lav mic.

More money equals better quality

In my opinion, this is one of those parts that you need to pay more for. Yes the price is really ridiculous but the sound quality is much better than the cheap replacements that I have found. You have to take very good care of these and don't allow your subjects to mishandle this cables. It is very fragile! I decided over the years to just take better care of these cables and they go a long way.

Great lavalier from Sony!

I purchased this mic as a replacement for the original one my Sony wireless system came with. It works perfectly! I think the sound quality is really good too!

UWP series are perfect, but the cables...

By Fernando

I really enjoy Sony UWP microphones, great sound quality but all the parts are too sensible. Threat them right and take care when you carry and storage them, even doing this, sometime in a short period you will get a broken cable. This specific lapel is pretty fragile and expensive. The that connects the receiver to the camera is cheaper but also fragile.

Flimsy wire

By John

Pathetically thin wire. Difficult to solder once the 1/8 end breaks (and it will) because the wire is so tiny. Sound is inconsistent after heavy use in the field. Consider a different brand.

Great Lapel Mic

I've used sone UHF lavs for years and they are fantastic. I'm very happy with them. Sound is clean. It's easy to switch frequencies if needed.

Will it work with Tascam DR-10L Digital Recorder? Any other brand digital recorder?
Asked by: Michael
No, the ECM-V1BMP features a proprietary wiring specifically for use with Sony wireless transmitters. The internal hot and ground terminations are different so the mic will not work properly with other devices. The Tascam DR-10L features a locking 3.5mm input connector that is compatible with lavalier mics terminated for Sennheiser wireless transmitters such as the Sennheiser ME 2-II Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone (B&H # SEME2II), Sennheiser MKE2 Gold Series Omnidirectional Lavalier Condenser Microphone with Accessories (B&H # SEMKE2EWG) or Countryman B3 Omni Lavalier Mic, Standard Sens, with 3.5mm Locking Connector for Sennheiser Wireless Transmitters (B&H # COB3W4BSR).

question

I use the UWP-D11, it says it came with the V1BMP mic. But the description of this mic does not indicate if the jam screws on. The other Sony lave mic, EMC 44 BMP does say the input will screw on. A) is this the mic that came with my system? Or is the description incorrect? I would like to use the same mic. Thank you in advance.
Asked by: Adam
The Sony ECM-V1BMP style mic WILL screw onto your mic transmitter unit. The Sony ECM-44-BMP will not screw onto to anything. . .you must attach the XLR connector of your choice yourself. Hope this helps. Dave/austin
